    Comments Thread For: Weights From Corpus Christi, TX: Williams 153.5, Ishida 155

Both fighters honored the contracted 155 lb weight limit, Ishida making weight on the dot while Williams came in slightly lighter at 153.5 lb. [Click Here To Read More]

      Why 155? Odd weight.

      War Punisher, I hope he has enough left to get one more good run in at 154.

          It's not uncommon for non-title fights to feature a limit of +/- 1 lb.

                      Is this the first time Williams has fought anyone even close to his own height?

                          I would love to see the winner of this fight face the Kirkland vs Molina winner.

                                      As far as I know, yes.

                                      And so much for the "new and slimmed down" Chris Arreola he weighs 245. his last four fights he was 240, 236 twice and 234.

                                      Both Cloud & Campillo look great.
